There's no problem talking about businesses. But I think most people know the difference between "You're looking for new boots? Biff's Boots has a sale right now" and "If you're in the market for new boots, be sure to check out Biff's Boots, the Internet's leading retailer of hunting footware."

To be truthful, I don't see much difference between the two, other than in the first the writer is tipping us off to a sale going on. To my way of thinking, the big difference comes in when the poster has a personal stake in the product being promoted.

I'm glad you're taking the bull by the horns in the, Ben. When the posters know you'll act, they're more likely to give you the head's up. Thanks.

By the way, I use the Mozilla Firefox browser, and never get any unwanted pop-ups.

When the Everyday Hunter isn't hunting, he's thinking about hunting, talking about hunting, dreaming about hunting, writing about hunting, or wishing he were hunting.

The pop ups I get from this site are linked to zedo.com ads if you dont close them they put cookies in your system. it's not just the D&DH media to buy D&DH books and such that I also get. I have to block or close the zedo.com everytime I get on the D&DH site or fourm. if it's linked or not linked to this server I havent investigated. I usually close or block it and move on.

If a man cant hunt when he's living how the hell will he hunt when he's dead
